SHORTS PROGRAM

Stop Calling Me Honey Bunny
Directed by Gabrielle Zilkha
2013, Canada, 11 min

It’s a journey most of us are familiar with. One that starts with lust, passion, intense love and joy and eventually dwindles down the road of routine, familiarity and day to day banalities. Once flirtatious and sexually charged exchanges give way to grocery list reminders and ‘honey, do you have to chew like that?’ type requests.

 

 

FEATURE PRESENTATION

Tru Love

Directed by Kate Johnston & Shauna MacDonald
2013, Canada, 94 min

Tru, 37, is a serial bed-hopping lesbian who cannot commit to a relationship or a job for long.

Restless by nature and wounded by the past, she seems to live from pillar to post, from mattress to mattress, bobbing along through life with no anchor to ground her. She gets by on her wits, her considerable good looks and charm — but at her age, it is all starting to wear a little thin.

Then she meets Alice, 60, a beautiful widow, who has come to town at the last minute to visit her daughter Suzanne, a too-busy corporate lawyer. Suzanne, 35, is Tru’s friend.

When Tru meets Alice, sparks fly and Alice and Tru begin forging an unlikely friendship… and more.

Co-Directors Kate Johnston & Shauna MacDonald (who also plays Tru in the film) will be present for a Q&A after the film.
